| General Explanation Supplemental Information for Form 990-PF | STATEMENT 10FORM 990-PF, PART IX-ASUMMARY OF DIRECT CHARITABLE ACTIVITIES FOR 2019990-PF NarrativeWe took in five dogs in 2020. Katie, a friendly 8-year old Beagle/Shepherd mix from Pennsylvania, had been blind since she was a puppy as a result of juvenile cataracts. Once here, our veterinary ophthalmologist restored Katies vision with cataract surgery.Then from a Vermont shelter came Harley, a three-legged elderly Min Pin with Cushings disease, and his pal Jake, an 8-year old Chihuahua. Sadly, we lost adorable Harley a few months after he arrived following two unsuccessful intestinal surgeries. Next was sweet little Stella, a blind and deaf Pug that a Maine shelter asked us to take. Stella had been used as a breeding female at a puppy mill for several years, then dumped at the shelter.Finally, in December, a South Carolina shelter asked if we could take Cammie. She had been blinded by a shotgun blast and still carried hundreds of pellets scattered across her body and we learned later, a bullet in a knee.A month after arriving, Cammie began vomiting and developed horrific seizures. Tests revealed she had extreme lead poisoning. She had surgery to remove the bullet and as many of the lead pellets as possible (236 of them!), and she is now undergoing chelation therapy to reduce her lead toxicity. Cammie is one of the most loving and affectionate dogs we have ever known.We lost six animals during the year five dogs and a blind mare. We ended the year with 12 disabled dogs and one blind horse. We expect in the future the number of disabled animals here at any one time to remain roughly comparable.For revenues, we brought in $455,854, with bequests accounting for $49,283 of that. Our total expenses were $473,378, with a resulting net loss of ($17,524). Actual cash expenses for charitable purposes were significantly less, amounting to $365,643, since depreciation alone accounted for $97,850 of the total expense.Direct expenses were $392,615 and indirect (administrative/outreach) expenses were $56,904. Our direct-to-indirect ratio was 87% to 13%. Cash on hand continued to grow, reaching $4.7 million. This is our critical operating reserve, which provides long-term financial security for the animals. We remain tremendously grateful for the generous gifts that allow us to take in disabled dogs like Katie, Cammie and their friends, and provide all the veterinary care and love they deserve. Thank you for all your support!Steve Smith and Alayne Marker, Co-founders | |
